Wie reagiert das Rückenmark auf #Schmerz? Mit einer neuen nicht-invasiven Methode können feinste Reaktionen des #Rückenmarks gemessen werden, schreiben Falk Eippert, @birgit_nierula & Vadim Nikulin in @PLOSBiology: cbs.mpg.de/2303751/202411…

How does the spinal cord react to #pain? Falk Eippert, @birgit_nierula & Vadim Nikulin write in @PLOSBiology that a new non-invasive method can be used to measure the finest reactions of the #spinal cord: cbs.mpg.de/2303930/202411…

Spinal recording is routinely used in experimental animals, but what about human #SpinalCord? @birgit_nierula &co @MPI_CBS describe a non-invasive #electrospinography approach that can directly record spinal cord activity with high precision #PLOSBiology plos.io/3YwSsYY

@mariella_n_paul Sorry to heat that Mariella, I hope you get better soon! Valencia sends best recovery wishes too!

I've been quiet on here for a while and it's because I have long-covid including brain fog and fatigue. Getting any work done has been difficult on some days and impossible on others. Pls send pictures of your pets

First paper coming out of the #eippertlab on automated z-shimming for spinal fMRI by my dear colleague @MerveKapta and collaborators! Congrats!!

@twi_mar Congratulations, Mar!

Good news: I got promoted to Principal Researcher. Despite the crazy year we have all had, this shows a trajectory but also that I have awesome colleagues, interns and collaborators. And a lot of flexibility to make things move at my own pace.

This is the youtube live feed of the workshop youtube.com/watch?v=YxHVJC…

Can we experience agency and responsibility over virtual movements controlled by #BCI? Proud to present my PhD work with @mavi_sanchez and @melslater at #ISMAR2020 today

Nice new overview article on using immersive virtual reality by rehabilitation and clinical pain: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

I have been working on an R library for regression modelling for fMRI. It's a work in progress. One thing that may be immediately useful (e.g. for teaching, tinkering) are the functions it has for generating hemodynamic regressors. See: bbuchsbaum.github.io/fmrireg/articl…

We will be recruiting 2 PhD. and 2 Post-doc positions . Background in fMRI (esp. 7T), EEG/MEG, or computational modelling is a plus. If you are interested in understanding what is Reality using a combination of VR and Cognitive Neuroscience techniques get in touch me. pls RT!

BIDS for motion data 1/2 Help us establish data sharing standards for motion data, making valuable data sets more readable to everyone. If you have worked with any kind of motion data, regardless of virtual or physical, with or without brain imaging, please take a few minutes >>

@domnaban I‘m so sorry to hear this Domna, what a horrible experience!

When somebody explained to me how publishing in science works, this is what it felt like not saying it's all bad but it should be better

The Machine Learning Team at NIMH is hiring a machine learning research scientist: nih-fmrif.github.io/ml/index.html We help NIMH scientists use machine learning to solve research problems. We have amazing data, technical resources, and collaborators! Please RT, thank you.

I am starting a lab at Northwestern University this summer and looking to hire two talented postdocs: higheredjobs.com/details.cfm?Jo…

Are you interested in #OpenScience and are thinking about starting an initiative at your university/institute? @lkjanssen and I have some tips for you based on our experience with the @CBSOpenScience initiative. Check out our blog post: ecrlife.org/how-to-start-a…

My team and I are looking for top PhD students who want to join us for an internship. I have projects on mesh rigging, blend shapes, CV reconstruction of avatars. Also building new devices. Strong unity programming a plus. And of course, with a big focus on the human+tech.

bayesianspectacles.org/a-breakdown-of… spot on, in my view
